We are very excited to begin a 6-week programme with Sheldwich Primary School today. Over the course of the programme we will be teaching years 1 & 3, showing them a variety of fun Martial Arts techniques as well as learning about focus and concentration.
This programme has been funded through the Canterbury School Sports Partnership.
Christmas Social – Friday, 22nd December (7:30pm)
We have arranged a little gathering at The Monument in Canterbury to toast a wonderful 2017 and look forward to 2018.
Nothing formal, just a chance to get together outside of the dojo and share some fun times.
I hope to see you there – all adult students, parents and friends welcome.

The last Grading Day for 2017 is fast approaching and I hope everyone is excited about the next challenge.
We will start the process of “tagging” this week and will continue this leading up to the Grading Day. If a Black Tag has been awarded we will also hand out a letter explaining what to do next (homework, venue etc).
As always, if a student is not quite ready for the December Grading that is ok. Martial Arts is an ongoing journey and there will be plenty of exciting challenges and opportunities ahead.
Here are the details for the Grading:
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to speak to your Instructor and we look forward to seeing you all in class
